Teaching and Learning Conference 2019: Forensic casework examination: Taking the fear out of embedding employability into a module

The Forensic Casework Examination module was designed to allow students to take on the role of a Forensic Casework Examiner and work alongside a range of professional forensic practitioners. The emphasis was placed on the development of skills and competencies relevant to the current industry needs. Traditional lectures have to a large extent been replaced with a workshop-based approach to learning. Evaluation of the module by the teaching team students External Examiners and the professional body was very positive and the innovative approach was widely praised.
